Chapter 7 — He Wants To Use Me To Hide A Secret

This is even better than we expected. Father knelt next to His Majesty, his face pale, his forehead covered in sweat. The grandmother was also helped to stand aside, her whole body trembling, no longer as calm as yesterday. His Majesty's eyes swept over everyone, landing straight on him. When you clearly see my miserable appearance right now. His pupils clearly shrank. I knelt on the cold ground like ice. Fragile clothes. His face was pale and bloodless. Lips dry, cracked, bleeding. But his eyes were still stubborn as before. That is the image of a fierce woman pushed to the edge. A perfect image. Enough to arouse anyone's pity and indignation.

"Is it Tham Trieu Van?"

His Majesty spoke, his voice was low, not sounding happy or angry. I used up the last bit of my strength to support the person who wanted to perform the ceremony. But before my eyes it was dark. The body is limp. Falling directly towards the ground.

"Trieu Van!"

The mother's screams rang out. I didn't fall completely down. A pair of strong hands. Caught my arm just before I hit the ground. When I wake up again. No longer in the cold street. Under the body is a soft brocade blanket. The tip of the nose smells faintly of a delicate scent. I slowly opened my eyes. Coming into view is the familiar bed curtain in my own bedroom.

"Miss! You're awake!"

Xuan Dao, a close maid who was always watching over the bed, shouted with joy, tears also falling.

"Young lady scared me to death! You've been in a coma for a whole day and a night!"

I gently moved my fingers. It felt like my body was still weak, but it had recovered some strength. I spoke hoarsely. Xuan Dao quickly poured a cup of warm water and carefully fed me to drink. The soft, sweet water seeped into my dry throat. I feel like I'm alive again.

"Now..."

"How's the situation?"

Xuan Dao wiped her tears and excitedly said:

"Miss, you have succeeded! You have been vindicated!"

She told me everything that happened after that, from beginning to end. That day. After I "fainted" in the street. Cong Ly immediately presented the book with his maiden name to His Majesty. In front of my father, grandmother and the entire family, His Majesty personally opened that book. The first page of the notebook. They are small, delicate lines written in cinnabar, clear and unmistakable.

"Eldest daughter Tham Thi, named Trieu Van, maiden name 'Van Van'. Born in the fall of the twentieth year of Khai Nguyen."

Below is the personal seal of my great-grandmother. The evidence is as real as a mountain. My nickname is "Van Van". Not "Chieu Chieu". When I see those two words. His Majesty's face was extremely unsightly. He didn't say a word. Just close the book. His sharp gaze like a blade swept across everyone present. That gaze stopped on the ancestor's body, whose face was as pale as yellow paper.

"Old lady."

"What a great 'family-first' statement."

His Majesty's voice is not loud. But it made the grandmother immediately weak and fall to the ground, unable to say a word. He no longer paid attention to the people of the Tham family. But directly issued a decree. Make a copy of the book that records the maiden name and then announce it to the world to correct the truth and restore the innocence of Miss Tham. family.
